Why Should You Choose
ARC?

The safety and well-being of our residents is our
priority.

ARC at Old Colony offers a home that combines the community of a
residence hall with the freedom and privacy of an apartment. The
quality amenities and professional, seasoned management make it the
place both you and your student can agree on.

Peace of Mind

From the moment a student enters ARC’s beautiful lobby, it will
be clear that we have an incomparable focus on their well-being.
The community is equipped with helpful on-site management and
maintenance, security cameras, 24/7 staffing and electronic key
access.

Location, Location, Location

ARC is located in the heart of Chicago in the South Loop
neighborhood. Students can conveniently walk to class, or use our
bike storage room and bike around the city. Since our community is
centrally located, most residents choose to walk, ride their bikes
or take public transportation to/from class. For residents who
drive, we have discounted parking rates with local garages.

A Responsive Management Team

We guarantee a 24/7 commitment to our residents. From our
professional management staff and friendly leasing professionals to
our maintenance team, we always have someone available to assist
residents. We strive to complete work orders within 24 hours of
receiving notification. Residents can easily submit a maintenance
request using the online resident portal or by calling the leasing
office during regular office hours.

A Simple Process

Our application and lease process is simple and tailored to
today’s savvy student and parent. The lease process may be done in
the office or entirely online. Starting with the application, each
resident must pass a background check. After signing a lease, a
guarantor (usually a parent) of each student will need to sign the
Guaranty Agreement, which is then attached to the completed lease.
Our leases are by-the-bed, which means that all residents are
individually responsible for his or her own payment. For students
or residents who are new to the area or don't have roommates
chosen, we can assist in matching roommates using our highly
successful roommate matching questionnaire.
